We hope everyone is ready to jump into a busy and exciting stretch of the school year. This time of year brings many important academic touch points, including MCA and AP testing, and we encourage students to stay focused, prepared, and confident as they demonstrate their learning.

We are also entering a season filled with memorable experiences—from prom to fine arts performances to a full slate of spring sports competitions. These opportunities highlight the energy, talent, and school spirit that make this time of year so special.

As we look ahead, our focus continues to build toward graduation, celebrating the accomplishments of the Class of 2026 and all they have achieved. Thank you for your continued support as we finish the year strong and make the most of these final months together.

Warmly, 
Scott Doran

We are incredibly fortunate to have Kristina Cook as the Administrative Assistant to the Activities Director.

Though newer to the role, she has already made an outstanding impact.
Her organization, positivity, and willingness to jump in wherever needed have helped keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes. She consistently goes above and beyond to support students, staff, and programs, and her dedication does not go unnoticed.

We are grateful to have her as part of our team and excited for all she will continue to accomplish.

Thank you for all you do Kristina!
